About a month ago, I think in comp.risks, there was discussion about
a British government standard for safety-critical software.
The discussion talked about what was and was not allowed according
to this standard (e.g. no multitasking, only a periodic clock
interrupt, etc.).

As usual, I now need such information and didn't save the postings.  Would
someone please point me to this document or any other papers etc. that deal
with this subject?

(I will never again pound my keyboard and yell when someone asks for
information that was just posted.)

humbly,
